    I'm sure if they can make it work, pretty sure they can, F1 will adopt and bada bing 5 yrs later it'll be 'would you like boring old sparkplugs or the NEW F1 TESTED SUPREMO LASERDILLYICOUS for only $500 per cylinder??' and because we have 4 Cyl MINI's it'll be a veritable bargin!

    Course by then it might be the 3 cylinder >2012 and it'll be even less

    If they could combine it with the windshield washer nozzles to create a laser show while I drive I would be all for it.

    It will have to be an OEM deal to me, cause it will involve reprogamming the ECU and require a whole host of specialized parts to make it work, but in the quest for even more fuel efficiency and HP I would not put it past someone like BMW experimenting with this tech.

    Then all they need to do is figure out how to refocus the beam to clean the carbon off the back of the valves!

    Zap! Zap! :D
